Could see $JACK, $WEN, $PZZA all go bankrupt. Probably others across the QSR space (subway, Pizza Hut some of the more challenged private operators) -- to be fair some of these could get acquired too but interesting how that would play through commercial real estate and impact the non distressed survivors -- very challenging space with prices having soared (affordability) and consumers pushing back or finding better/comparable value at a Chili's etc. Freight costs (diesel and trucker shortage from policy moves) and food costs that are/will escalate (freight and commodities) is going to bring new challenges to margins. Menu prices likely need to reset lower across many of these chains but that is a very difficult process for owners and franchises to accomplish especially while input costs continue to rise. GLP1s hurt overall volume trends as well but......look out to automation/robotics in store and how trends tend to switch back to QSR/fast food in a more stressed economic condition there might be select opportunities in the coming months for a few players as prices have/are resetting fast across tis space

$JELD 12x levered facing insurmountable near-term debt maturities. Engaged advisors to sell assets to stem insolvency. Longshot odds given accelerating deterioration in end-markets and rising input costs. Setting up for a Q4 bankruptcy.

I continue to view $EVC as severely mispriced here. Market is completely missing the big picture. https://t.co/T1vGykkx1F

$FOA has lost about 50% in the past 2 months. I have not followed closely since selling (at a loss) a while ago. Any good writeups on the current situation? https://t.co/af4l42xmfd

Well, I guess $MG won’t be buying $ACFN. $MG gets acquired by H.I.G. Capital (investment firm). Next step, let HIG know about this little unknown company called Acorn Financial… and that it didn’t show up on their screens because it’s not a bank, as the name would imply🥹 https://t.co/zgmKJt0EiN

In the $INMD example i posted recently, it has a P/E of 8x or so, and sure it's earnings seem to be collapsing, but what if it stabalizes and then recovers after a few years? In this shape, 8x is not quite the bargain you thought it was. https://t.co/FaIWBcgOsR
